https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=mam%C3%B3n


In Mexican slang, it means something like "insolent little douchebag", "absurd fuckhead", or "deliberately, and often arrogantly, uncooperative".

It's highly inaccurate to say it simply means "annoying person", "someone who does something stupid", or even "snob". It can be used to describe an annoying person since an absurd, arrogant asshole will of course be annoying, but annoyance is such a subjective and broad notion and mamón does not come close to encompassing it completely, so it's a flawed definition. Same thing goes for 'doing something stupid' or 'snob', and to these add the fact that there are slang words for each of those that are several times more fitting; like pendejo or fresa, respectively. Although it would be perfectly fitting to call a snob a mamón if he or she has the appropriate attitude, but not a simply someone who does dumb things since pendejo covers that.

Mamón is a very light chiffon or sponge cake known for its soft and fluffy texture. It is traditionally baked in crenelated tin molds which gives it a characteristic cupcake-like shape. It is typically slathered in butter and sprinkled with white sugar and grated cheese. Mamón is commonly eaten for merienda

mamón

It's highly inaccurate to say it simply means "annoying person", "someone who does something stupid", or even "snob". It can be used to describe an annoying person since an absurd, arrogant asshole will of course be annoying, but annoyance is such a subjective and broad notion and mamón does not come close to encompassing it completely, so it's a flawed definition.

- That little mamón thinks he's hot shit with all his little bullshit. 

- I used to hang out with him but then he started being a little mamón.

Almost all Libertarians are plugged into multiple social-funded programs.

If they can plug into them, they view it as deserved. If they can't plug into it, they view it as a tax.
